1 warm up, 3 Tests and 5 ODIs, a good schedule. Forgetting the Tri Series and the Asia Cup, India should ensure that they can field a full strength team for this tour. I can imagine Murali and Mendis being tough work for the Indian batsmen.

I want to avenge our last tour here we lost. I believe sach, laxman , and someone else didnt play . also remember the match where sl made 610

hope india can beat em 3-0 or at least 2-0

1-0 India in the tests.

4-1 ODI's.

yup expect some dust bowls from sl hoping murali would run us over only to be dissappointed

 

[Cricketman]

We have our own collection of spinners. I reckon Mishra could get a go.

I am waiting for some Indian intl. cricket. Its been so long. The IPL has been entertaining, but I miss INDIA!

India to win the tests convincingly. India will be favorites in ODI's too but Sri Lanka at home are no easy pushovers.

I reckon the Srilis will give us more of a fight than the Pakistani's did, with the groundtaff preparing absolute dustbowls for Murali.
